Directions for Use of Aqua Ear Drops 5ml

Here are some simple steps to help you use Aqua Ear Drop correctly:

Make sure your hands are clean before handling the ear drops.
Carefully drop the medicine into your ear without letting the dropper touch it.
Use the solution within one month after opening the container.
Instil 4-5 drops in the ear 3-4 times daily or as directed by your doctor.

Aqua Ear Drop is instilled topically into the ear.

Using Aqua Ear Drop might lead to the following minor side effects:

Itching
Burning
Stinging: A slight stinging sensation might be felt application.
Temporary Hearing Loss

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Aqua Ear Drop . However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor. Here are a couple of helpful tips:

Itching or Burning: If these occur, try applying Aqua Ear Drop before bedtime to lessen the discomfort during your active hours.
Temporary Hearing Loss: If you notice a decrease in hearing ability after application, consider using Aqua Ear Drop at night when you don't need optimal hearing.

Aqua Ear Drop is composed of four active ingredients that work together:

Neomycin (0.5%): This antibiotic falls under the aminoglycoside class and operates by binding to bacterial 30S ribosomal subunits disrupting protein synthesis. This interference leads to bacterial cell death, eliminating the infection.
Beclomethasone dipropionate (0.025%): This is a corticosteroid that suppresses inflammation by blocking the release of inflammatory mediators. This action reduces swelling, redness and itching in the affected area.
Clotrimazole (1%): This antifungal agent belongs to the azole class and works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a crucial component of fungal cell membranes. The disruption of membrane formation leads to leakage in cellular contents resulting in death of the fungus.
Lidocaine/Lignocaine (2%): An amide-type local anaesthetic that blocks voltage-gated sodium channels in neuronal cell membranes. By preventing depolarisation, nerve impulse generation and conduction are inhibited providing temporary relief from pain.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while using Aqua Ear Drop if you are pregnant. It's best to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Breastfeeding

The safety of Aqua Ear Drop during breastfeeding is not established. If you are lactating, discuss with your doctor before using this medicine.

Alcohol

Interactions between alcohol and Aqua Ear Drop are rare as it's a topical product. Still, it's wise to ask your doctor about any concerns.

Liver

Since Aqua Ear Drop is applied externally, it rarely affects liver health. However, if you have any liver conditions, it's worth discussing them with your doctor.

Kidney

Aqua Ear Drop has minimal impact on kidney health due to its external application. But if you have a history of kidney issues, ensure to mention this to your doctor before using the medicine.

Aqua Ear Drop doesn't generally affect your ability to drive or operate machinery. If you experience any unusual symptoms that could impact these activities, consult your doctor.
